Comparison is a common problem that we do, and when I say we do it, it’s because I have done it in my life and every now and then I catch myself doing it. Think about the example of comparing apples to oranges, the only thing they have in common is that they’re fruit.  So, if you compare yourself to someone, the only thing you have in common is that you’re a human being or you both are women. It’s impossible to compare yourself to someone else because there are no two people alike, not even identical twins. You have your own unique gifts, talents, and skills. God created you to be you!  There’s no one else out there that can be just like you. It’s almost ridiculous that we compare ourselves to someone else.  Going on social media can take you on a downward spiral when you look at other people and see only the perfect pictures and videos, but you have no idea what’s going on behind the scenes and the messiness.  Make a decision today that you’re going to focus on your gifts and talents and how special you are.
